BRIEF HISTORICAL SUMMARY: According to ancient documents it is assumed that the ancestors of the Chin were presented as a gift from the rulers of Korea (during the Silla Dynasty age 377–935) to the Japanese court in 732. For a successive 100 years, there appears to have been a large number of Chins coming into Japan. Historical records also indicate that envoys sent to China (during the Tung Dynasty age 618–910) and North Korea (during the Po H’ai Dynasty age 698–926) brought back dogs of this breed directly. During the reign of the Shogunate Tsunayoshi Tokugawa (1680–1709) the breed was raised as an indoor toy dog in the Castle of Edo. In 1613 a British Captain, named Searles brought a Chin to England and in 1853 Commodore Perry from the U.S. brought several to the U.S. of which two were presented to Queen Victoria of England. Since 1868, the Chin has been favored as a lapdog by ladies of the upper classes, and currently is being widely spread as a companion dog.
